That’s more like it Finau.

It was an accident. He thought it was a back.

@Canes4life said in All Blacks v Japan:

That’s more like it Finau.

That's a forward, too

@Jet said in All Blacks v Japan:

Perofeta been a bit of a non entity at FB if we are honest.

Love should have started.

Here comes Peter Lakai

@Canes4life said in All Blacks v Japan:

Apart from the first throw of the game. Aumua’s having an outstanding game. Superb on defence and strong on attack.

Now we need to see him bring it across to playing the tier 1 teams the next 3 games

100%

This is just an advert for Toshiba, Adidas, Altrad, Shit Tackling and Ineos Grenadiers.

A waste of aviation fuel.

Here he is

And I'm spent

A test more about earning than learning

May as well have Codie Taylor or Coles on the wing. They can execute the stop running and cut back in just as well as Reece and Telea.

Nice play while in the forwards, then turned to poo behind the advantage lineonce the backs got it

And DMac wasting more possession

Congrats Lakai. About time he got a run.

The more I watch, the more convinced I become DMac is not the answer.

Good day to be a Welly fan. Lakai, and Love making their debuts. Aumua and Proctor going well. Can’t complain.

@Victor-Meldrew well that answers that.

A lot of practicing skills which will never be relevant against the top 5 teams.

Dumb from Proctor there. Needless

Telea

@Canes4life said in All Blacks v Japan:

Tuipolotu, Sititi and Proctor the stand outs for me in that first half.

LOL. He's been very average.

Telea

Proctor shouldered him into Telea and it was Proctor who got pinged

One thing that has been weird is the lack of a guard player, normally a lock, at the box kick rucks. Maybe they were getting the halfback to practice kicking under pressure?

Both hookers are quicker than them too

You obviously didn’t watch the first half.

So, you want RM back? Just come out and say it

Jesus wept. Put Perofeta into 10 and Love into fullback. DMac is dreadful.

Nah, this is going to pay enough for NZR to buy Robertson out of his contract and hire Mark Hammett as his replacement

I did, but I wasn't wearing Wellington pyjamas.

Let put to bed the idea that DMac is a Test. Time to invest in Harry Plummer.

I'd have him over DMac, but I want to see how we'd play with Plummer.

This is why I think England Ireland and France are going to hump us.

Our bread and butter fundamentals are not up to scratch.

We are all fur coat and no knickers.

Can we score any tries in the last 20 minutes of this one?

The Fuck? "Has that found touch?" - the fluffybunny had his foot TOTALLY in touch as he caught that... WTAF?

You are all Mrs Crazy? No wonder I am always wrong on here.

Get Love on Razor, fucking hell you’ve made him wait enough already.
